The link bait was mentioning HN's 2 favorite editors. Especially since we've discussed brackets several times before: http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=bra...

I always thought that HN's two favourite editors were VI and EMACS...

Vim and Emacs are very probably HN's two favorite editors, not sure why he said that.

Yes, you are correct! Egg on my face for not noticing the earlier mentions. Unfortunately for the army or Bracket promoters, substance really matters within the technical community. One can't market their way into product adoption with an inferior technical product in this community.
The good: auto-refreshing preview of HTML page upon save
The bad: no auto-end-brackets or end quotes as one types (ironic, considering the editor is named Brackets)
I am sure that the talented Adobe engineers will make this editor a major contender for Sublime and Textmate in the future, but at this point, I think the stunning attribute in the post title is a bit link-baitish. I'm looking forward to watching the editor develop into a mature product!
